The micro Raman spectra of solid-liquid boundary layer, the melts and crystal side, were measured at real time, concerning BSO crystal grown with zone-melting method. The structure characters in boundary layer, melts and crystal were analyzed. The process, of which the growth unit structure changed while they transited from melts through boundary layer to crystal lattice, was analyzed. The results show that, there exists Bi3O4 and [SiO4] bonding structure in the melts of BSO crystal. While in the solid-liquid boundary layer, the Bi3O4 molecular units converge into [BiO7] octahedron monomer of polymer in form, the monomer or the polymer converge with the [SiO4] structure units, then all these converged structure enter into crystal lattice sites.

Study on the mechanism of erosion and wear of elbow pipes by coarse particles in filling slurry.

Sci Rep

December 2024

The Ministry of Education Key Laboratory of High Efficiency Mining and Safety for Metal Mines & School of Civil and Resources Engineering, University of Science and Technology Beijing, Beijing, 100083, People's Republic of China.

Coarse particles in filling slurry are the primary factor causing wear in filling elbow pipes, and the wear mechanism of these particles on the pipes is influenced by various factors. To study the erosion and wear mechanism of elbow pipes caused by coarse particles, the motion state of coarse particles under different curvature radii, coarse particle gradations, and pipe diameters was investigated using a simulation method based on the coupling of Fluent and EDEM software, grounded in theories of fluid mechanics, rheology, and solid-liquid two-phase flow. The study explored the impact patterns and locations of wear induced by coarse particles on filling elbow pipes.

Topological Insulators (TIs) are promising platforms for Quantum Technology due to their topologically protected surface states (TSS). Plasmonic excitations in TIs are especially interesting both as a method of characterisation for TI heterostructures, and as potential routes to couple optical and spin signals in low-loss devices. Since the electrical properties of the TI surface are critical, tuning TI surfaces is a vital step in developing TI structures that can be applied in real world plasmonic devices.

Deciphering Surface-Localized Structure of Nanodiamonds.

Nanomaterials (Basel)

December 2024

Faculty of Materials Science and Engineering, Kunming University of Science and Technology, Kunming 650093, China.

Nanomaterials, heralded as the "new materials of the 21st century" for their remarkable physical and chemical properties and broad application potential, have attracted substantial attention in recent years. Among these materials, which challenge traditional physical boundaries, nanodiamonds (NDs) are widely applied across diverse industries due to their exceptional surface multifunctionality and chemical stability. Nevertheless, atomic-level manipulation of NDs presents considerable challenges, which require detailed structural analysis to thoroughly elucidate their properties.

Relaxor ferroelectric film capacitors exhibit high power density with ultra-fast charge and discharge rates, making them highly advantageous for consumer electronics and advanced pulse power supplies. The Aurivillius-phase bismuth layered ferroelectric films can effectively achieve a high breakdown electric field due to their unique insulating layer ((BiO) layer)). However, designing and fabricating Aurivillius-phase bismuth layer relaxor ferroelectric films with optimal energy storage characteristics is challenging due to their inherently stable ferroelectric properties.

Laboratory for Multiscale Material Modelling, Syracuse University, 151L Link Hall, Syracuse, NY, 13244, USA.

Bamboo culm has been widely used in engineering for its high strength, lightweight, and low cost. Its outermost epidermis is a smooth and dense layer that contains cellulose, silica particles, and stomata and acts as a water and mechanical barrier. Recent experimental studies have shown that the layer has a higher mechanical strength than other inside regions.
